Selecting the Mode
of Operation
The mode of operation may be selected using the
DIGITAL:CONFIGURE command. This command has the following
syntax:
:DIGital
:CONFigure <port>
Examples of this command are shown below:
To set all ports of the 1260-114 module with address 7 to the
asynchronous mode of operation:
DIG:CONF
(@7(0))
To set ports 0 through 3 to the synchronous mode, and ports 4
through 11 to the asynchronous mode:
DIG:CONF (@7(12)): DIG:CONF (@7(4))
To read the presently selected mode of operation for port 10 on
module 7, issue the following command. The reply returns “SYNC”
if it is synchronous, or “ASYN” if it is asynchronous:
DIG:CONF?
